• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/WHO304 - Selection criteria are not sufficient ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/WHO304 Selection criteria are not sufficient typically occurs in the context of the Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module when trying to perform a task that requires specific selection criteria, such as during the creation of a warehouse task or when trying to execute a report.
  Cause:
  This error message indicates that the selection criteria provided for the operation you are trying to perform are not sufficient to identify the relevant data. This could be due to:
  
  
  Insufficient Filters: The filters or parameters you have set do not narrow down the selection to a specific set of data. For example, if you are trying to create a warehouse task but have not specified enough details about the source or destination.
  
  
  Missing Data: Required fields or parameters may be missing from your selection criteria, leading to ambiguity in the data retrieval process.
  
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be issues with the configuration of the warehouse processes that affect how selection criteria are interpreted.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Review Selection Criteria: Check the selection criteria you have entered. Ensure that you have provided all necessary parameters and that they are correctly filled out. For example, if you are filtering by storage type, ensure that the storage type is valid and exists in the system.
  
  
  Add More Filters: If the current filters are too broad, try adding more specific filters to narrow down the selection. This could include specifying warehouse numbers, storage bins, or product details.
  
  
  Check for Required Fields: Ensure that all required fields are filled in. Refer to the documentation or help text for the specific transaction or report you are using to identify any mandatory fields.
  
  
  Consult Configuration: If you suspect a configuration issue, consult with your SAP EWM configuration team to ensure that the warehouse processes are set up correctly and that the selection criteria are defined as expected.
  
  
  Test with Different Data: If possible, try running the same operation with different data to see if the issue persists. This can help identify if the problem is data-specific.
  
  
  Check for System Notes: Look for any system notes or documentation related to the specific transaction or report you are using. There may be known issues or additional requirements documented.
